I'm having a situation. I have 3 computers on a network. I have bellsouth
dsl, and a wireless linksys router. Two of the computers are hooked up with
cables, and a laptop is wireless. They have been on the same workgroup,
sharing files for months. Wednesday all the sudden one of the desktops
hooked up through cables will not work. The laptop and other desktop still
share files. The Desktop that doesn't work is on the same workgroup as the
other two, but when I go to "My Network Places" and search computers on
workgroup, nothing appears. I'm not sure why it is doing this, or how to fix
it. I have norton internet securities also on all 3 computers. Can someone
please help me.

Thanks,

Can they ping each other? if not, posting the ipconfig /all may help.
